MINICARS: Apparently you can get kaido racers from a vending machine in Japan

You can get almost anything in a vending machine in Japan, and now that apparently includes toy kaido racers. Just drop in ¥1,000 (approximately $10 USD) and out comes your 1:64-scale bosozoku-style minicars.

The cars are made by Aoshima as part of their Gurachan series, and include bosozoku favorites like Nissan Skylines and Toyota Mark IIs. Naturally, all are slammed, flared, and come with small-diameter wheels. Normally they come in sealed boxes so it’s a gamble if you want a specific model or color.

The machine was spotted by a Twitter user named , who says it’s located in Dream Plaza in Shimizu Ward, Shizuoka Prefecture. This makes sense, as Shizuoka is the home of Aoshima, as well as many other model companies. Often, home regions will proudly showcase local industries in interesting ways. You can probably get these cars in a regular store too, but for the novelty factor you can’t beat a vending machine.
